Synopsis
"I think it will be more profitable for me to make my round in the world," says the ugly duckling, fleeing the world's violence. Freely inspired by Andersen's fairy tale, Swan Language poetically recounts the salutary wanderings of artists of artists who are transformed by their encounter.
A fusion of puppetry, dance and sign language, this story of dance returns to the beauty of the everyday test to find ourselves.
